Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this project is elucidation of pathophysiology of schizophrenia regarding myelination abnormality. We found that the expression change of hnRNP C2 effected on the expression of a myelination gene. Our findings suggest the involvement of the molecule in myelination and the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.
